M had her very first trip to the beach and I would say over all it was a pretty good trip. The beginning and ending were a little rough but the middle was great. The beginning was all rain and scary storms but by Monday we were ready to play in the sand and waves. When we are home, M absolutely loves to be outside and typically will throw a bit of fit when you won't take her, so of course we asumed she would LOVE the beach. Sadly, not so much. She warmed up some as the week went on but I don't think she ever loved it. I'm hoping next year she will have a better appreciation for all it offers.
On the way down we stopped in Baton Rouge for the night and met up with the Breens. The girls thought the luggage cart was a lot of fun!
M's first time on the beach looked like this:
The Breen kids seemed to love it a lot more, but luckily M warmed up to it by the end of the trip.
One of my favorite parts was watching the large shrimp boats go by the house several times a day.
I just love this kid so much.
Most days I got to do a lot of reading and enjoyed every minute of it.
While I read, M did a lot of this.
By far one of the smartest things we did was bring this air up pool.
The smaller kids really enjoyed playing in the pool.
And the hubby did a lot of this.
Now if only I could go back once more this summer....
